I haven't found a solution so far and I tried so many things. Hope some of you guys can help me. I am using Python.
I have a .txt file with values like: 9,5,7,6,4
And I want to read this file as an array with float values, so it should look like:
array([9.0, 5.0, 7.0, 6.0, 4.0], dtype=float32)
The only thing I found so far is looks like:
array(['9,5,7,6,4),dtype='<U9'])
and is a string and not a float.
Thanks for helping!
Read it as text
text = open(filename).read() # "9,5,7,6,4"
split to list of strings
data = text.split(',') # ["9", "5" , "7", "6", "4"]
convert every string to float
values = [float(x) for x in data] # [9.0, 5.0, 7.0, 6.0, 4.0]
Example code
#text = open(filename).read()
text = '9,5,7,6,4'
data = text.split(',')
values = [float(x) for x in data]
print(values)
# [9.0, 5.0, 7.0, 6.0, 4.0]
EDIT:
If you use array() then probably you use numpy so you should see numpy.loadtxt which should do what you want - you have to only use delimiter=','
open(),read(); split in withsplit(",")and you get list["9", "5" , "7", "6", "4"]- and usefor-loop withfloat()to convert every element on list to float value.
